I was craving for brisket and as the restaurant name implies, it better be good. I ordered the brisket baked potatoe with a side of cream corn and my friend ordered the pulled pork baked potatoe with a side of coleslaw. When the food came out I guess the staff misheard my friend order because a pulled pork sandwich came out instead of the baked potato. The staff quickly fixed this and brought out the correct order. First glance everything looks great. They gave a lot of meat which is a plus! The cream corn was very tasty and I def would order again. I wish they have side condiments bar as I would liked more pickles, onions and BBQ sauce. Other than that I had a great experience here and would dine here again when I'm in the area read more

Things have changed at Brisket House over the last few years, so here's a new review... I stopped in last week and ordered a sausage sandwich. Their sausage used to be decent. It's more Eckrich-like today. It used to be in a Czech/German Texas hill country style. Not anymore. It's hot garbage. Pass on the sausage. Let's try again today. This time I ordered the brisket and pork ribs. They used to be famous for their beef ribs. They don't serve them anymore. It's a shame. You can't fault them on this. They probably had trouble sourcing the beef ribs for a price that wasn't outrageous. It's a tough business. So, I order a 1/2 lbs of pork ribs and a 1/4 lbs of brisket. The brisket was out of this world amazing! Of course, they're named "The Brisket House". Pork ribs were perfect. Sauce very good as well. The girl at the counter was rude and obnoxious. They used to have nice people working there. It's hard to find good help these days. read more

I think i just discovered another hidden gem. I went 3days in a row and every time the food stayed consistently good. Their oak wood smoked brisket was smoky and satisfying, and the jalapeno sausage was also a tasty bonus. I came coming back the cornbread, it was super moist. The TBH platter is generous enough to share between 2people. It is a great spot for a quick satisfying barbecue meal. the staff are friendly and attentive, so helpful whether you're dining in or grabbing take out. read more

Delicious food served up by very friendly staff members. I stopped in today on the way following a visit to the dog park. I decided to get takeout than sitting out front with the dog. So so I chose the TBH special. That includes some sausage, a couple of pork ribs, and some brisket, along with a three sides. After the trip home, I warmed it up enjoyed a wonderful meal. I have enough left over for lunch tomorrow. read more

I was in town on business and this location came highly recommended to enjoy some good BBQ. When I walked into the restaurant, I noticed its industrial-style design, with a brick-layer counter and an open kitchen where you could watch the food being prepared. It's a casual place where you order at the counter, pay, and then find a seat at one of the ten or so tables inside. Both the preparation and dining areas appeared clean. To be honest, I expected to be hit with the delicious smell of BBQ smoke as soon as I walked in, but that wasn't the case. Still, I went up to the counter to place my order. Unfortunately, the young woman at the counter didn't seem too interested in helping me. There was no greeting, just a cold shrug when I said hello. Asking her questions about the menu felt like a chore, and I almost considered leaving. But since I had taken an Uber to get there, I decided to stay and ordered the three-meat plate combo with brisket, ribs, and sausage, along with baked beans and loaded mashed potatoes. A polite gentleman brought the food to my table within minutes, as everything was already prepared. As I started eating, I realized I was missing cornbread--a must-have with BBQ in my opinion. I hadn't seen it listed under the main menu, but after a closer look, I found it under desserts. Reluctantly, I approached the same grumpy server to ask about it and ended up ordering a slice. Thankfully, the other men behind the counter were much friendlier. The portions were generous for the price, especially with the sides included. The meats were fantastic--well-smoked, seasoned, and tender. The baked beans had a nice smoky flavor, and the mashed potatoes were creamy with the skin still on, though they could have used a bit more topping. The cornbread was a highlight--light and fluffy with a golden brown, slightly crispy crust. It had a good balance of sweet and savory, and the honey drizzled on top made it even better. They also have a variety of drinks, including beer, soda, Dr. Pepper fountain drinks, and iced tea. Although I didn't try the desserts, they offered options like banana pudding, pecan pie, and chocolate chip brownies. Now, I'm someone who values good customer service, and I believe it can make or break the dining experience. Unfortunately, my interaction with the staff left a bad taste in my mouth. While I was there, I noticed that the young lady at the counter treated other customers differently, based on their skin color, which made the whole experience uncomfortable. Despite the good food, I won't be returning. There have to be better, more welcoming places to enjoy BBQ.

Best BBQ in Houston. Always fresh, generous servings of meat. The baked beans are so good.

My first time ordering and I was fairly impressed overall! Easy to order over the phone which was nice. My fav part was the banana pudding but the sandwich was by far the star. The green beans and mac & cheese we're just ok. The mac & cheese was a little bland in my opinion. But overall a really good meal, I would come back for sure and maybe order some different sides. read more

Geez! Whoever cooks these ribs is awesome! So I tried the 3 meat plate: Ribs, brisket, chicken. Was great and tasty. Staff were nice and on-point. This place is a gem. If you haven't tried it, you should. I do wish they had more sides like okra. I also would like to see a 2nd option bbq sauce a little spicier. Love the country music and decor. read more

Where there's smoke, there's fire--and the food here proves it. Stack that brisket like you #StackSats! The brisket is smoked low and slow over oak wood for up to 14 hours, and you can taste the love in every slice. The service was fast, friendly, and knew their way around the heat. The ambiance had a relaxed, down-to-earth vibe--perfect for kicking back and digging in. Don't sleep on the jalapeño sausage, and if you're using a cash back app, that's just extra flavor on the side. IG @ TheCashBackQuest X @ TheCashBackQuest read more

This was our first time coming here to Texas. We came for my son's baseball tournament. This place was worth 30 minutes drive from our hotel. * We were greeted by all the staff right when we walked through the door. * The staff were very friendly and helpful in answering our questions. * We got ribs, brisket, and pulled pork - we also got their sides which were green beans, cream corn, baked beans, mac & cheese, and cornbreads they were ALL DELICIOUS and their meats were so tender that they just melted in your mouth. * We also got their Handmade Banana Pudding which was VERY DELICIOUS!!! We are going to be craving for their food. Wish they would have one in L.A. read more

I hate to say this but this was the BEST barbecue I've had since I've been in Houston! We were blown away by the tenderness and the seasoning ! I'm going to come back and do a video review for them! I thoughts Papas bbq was great but their food was lacking on some items especially brisket. No complaints here I can't wait to get back! Oh and that banana pudding?!!! Righteous!!! Tastes homemade too read more

I've been coming here to eat for almost 10 years now because I consider Brisket House to be the best BBQ restaurant in the Greater Houston area. The brisket, chicken and ribs are as good as ANYONE else's and the side dishes are better than most. In particular my favorites are the baked beans and baked potato salad as both are perfect. Their bbq sauce is my kind of good! Beef and pork prices are sky high so eating excellent barbecue ain't cheap! Kind of like the way crawfish prices have skyrocketed over the past 10-15 years. Brisket House is a little less expensive on their meats and sides as compared to other "top tiered" Q eateries around here. So eating at BH does provide some value in a tough price environment. This location is the OG and offers great aromas when walking inside but the seating space here is on the small side. The other location that I frequent on Cypress Creek Parkway is much larger. Either location serves the same great tasting food which speaks to BH's consistency and I'm sure the Deer Park location is the same. The meats are tender, juicy and flavorful. The side dishes are simply delicious. The prices are reasonable. What else can you ask for? read more

So what gets me here is the unique platter you can order with two meats and a slab of cheddar rather than sides "the brisket house special." I also tried a piece of cornbread which was tasty. Overall the BBQ is good. Perhaps not the best I've had, but solid. Sadly it's been a while since I ate here and forgot to the the review immediately so I don't recall specifics about the BBQ... guess I'll just have to go back and review it again! When I go back I think I want to try the TBH Platter... brisket, sausage, ribs and 3 sides... split it with a friend! read more

The Brisket House - Brisket House Special with extra cornbread - Barbeque Near Me - Houston, Texas

I haven't been in a few years. I use to come often when I lived near by. The sides were subpar in the past. This time I ordered the loaded mashed potatoes and the mac and cheese. The mac and cheese was better then the last time I tried it. A higher quality kraft or processed quality. Not gourmet but not horrible. The loaded mashed potatoes were good and tasted like real potatos. I ordered brisket, lean and turkey. The turkey was good. The brisket was not lean. Mostly fatty. It disappointed me a little. It tasted good.Maybe my expectations were too high. Either way I enjoyed my meal. read more

Brisket is a 4-4.25. The amount of food you get is a 5+. It's been a long time since I've eaten at the Brisket House. About 10-15 years. After Goode Co went to complete garbage, we decided to swap for a change in our neighborhood. The service is great and friendly and the portions are what you think of when you think of Texas BBQ read more

(From August 2020) A fine BBQ joint and one of the better ones in Houston. I was dying for food after a long bike ride and made a stop to get some BBQ. Went with a two meat platter (Brisket & Chicken) + two sides (potato salad, Mac & cheese). Also got an order of beef ribs and a banana pudding. The brisket was moist and tender, definitely restored my faith in Texas brisket. Chicken wasn't bad either. Potato salad was serviceable although not as good as other spots. Mac and cheese was tasty as I expected. Now for the beef ribs, it's one of the finest pieces of meat I've had. Juicy and smoky, it's what defines Texas BBQ. Don't use utensils, it was meant to be eaten by hand and off the bone! Of course I saved room for the banana pudding as I had to have sweets to compliment the meats. It was an excellent finish to the meat sweats with the wafers and banana cream. There's other BBQ places on my radar but this one has made my rotation when I'm in the mood for Texas meats! Might've ordered too much for one person but my appetite and taste buds have no regrets! read more

Over the years, I have heard a thing or two about the Brisket House, so today I decided to order from there via Uber Eats. I really only wanted a baked potato, but I figured that I'd get it with brisket to get a feel of their bbq. Well, let's just say that they didn't read the order notes at all. I specifically requested LOOSE cut brisket and no sauce at all needed. Thank God that add-ons were on the side because the rating would've been worse. I must say that it was packaged very well. The very lean brisket that I absolutely did not want, tasted like it had been boiled and had little to no flavor. Also, do not expect the potato to be that big. I gave it a 3 because the potato was literally okay. Really disappointed maybe it just wasn't their day. read more

Yes, they are smoking meat on-site, and they don't cover their smoked meat in sauce. Good signs. for a smokehouse. If they're not smoking on-site, keep driving. So this place smokes brisket, pork ribs, chicken, turkey, and pork shoulder. I tasted out most of it, and I would say they are in the top tier for their brisket. Their ribs were also very good. The turkey was tender and juicy, which is hard to do, but the pork shoulder (pulled pork) that I had was on the drier side for my taste. I had to use their sauce for the pulled pork. I also had the pinto bean side, which was also very good. I would definitely return for the brisket and ribs. The brisket was "beast"! read more
